4 Daily Fantasy Baseball Value Plays for 9/19/16
Hyun Soo Kim, OF, Baltimore Orioles
FanDuel Price: $3,000
Playing at home in Camden Yards, a hitter-friendly park that is especially kind to lefties and against a pitcher in Rick Porcello who has struggled against left-handed bats over his career, this is a great spot for Hyun Soo Kim.
Porcello has allowed a .339 wOBA with a 4.12 xFIP against left-handed hitters over his career and hasn't been playing as well as his 3.12 ERA may indicate this year, sporting a 3.80 SIERA.
Kim has shown some promise in his first year in the Majors, slashing .307/.383/.415 with a .351 wOBA through 313 plate appearances. His wOBA jumps to .367 when we narrow the splits to his 259 plate appearances against right-handed pitching. The Baltimore Orioles have a solid 4.29 implied total tonight, and everything comes together to make Kim a strong value here.
